Tennessee. Its great to have you here. I should have my passport stamped. Were about to see the biggest contrast you can a imagine, the president last night in montana, on his way to north dakota, and then of course barack obama in illinois, where he launched it all well, not that far from springfield, illinois, at least. What do we expect to hear from president obama . This is going to be a remarkable split screen, andrea, one that democrats and republicans have been anticipating, some of them dreaming about. What will we hear from former president obama . Were told no one is going to come away from his Speech Thinking that he held his punching. This is going to be a sharp, pointed speech about the state of democracy. He is going to be calling on democrats to get into the fray. I spoke with one of his advisers, who said, look, part of his message will be that democrats dont get engaged
exhibit after exhibit of what the trump era embodies. Its the rule of law, its the cohen, the manafo
who are uncomfortable of the role model of the president is setting for the future. yeah. they would not accept this from democrats in the future. they should holdup and stand up and be count or held accountable for their failure to vote for impeachment on these grounds. it is a good pinkie. congressman kingston did say. one or two democrats doing the other way is counted as bipartisansh bipartisanship. paul, let me let you listen to the guy who was in charge of writing this article. some of these things are very clear. there is overwhelming evidence unco uncontested that the president put himself above the country and sought foreign assistance in elections and sought to cover it up and defiied participation in
security. frankly, as a cia officer i worked my entire life to preserve the homeland from attack, so there s plenty of us who want to have that conversation. i just think that this way of doing it just kills a couple of long-standing principles that we want for our military of bipartisansh bipartisanship. so not to defend this move, but haven t democrat leaders in congress basically said to president trump we re not going to give you any money for your border wall no matter what? i mean, hasn t it been a nonstarter with speaker pelosi? so i think, you know, i think the wall i don t know that there s anyone, including the president who still walks about a wall from sea to shining sea. i think that most people think we re talking about security at the border, fencing, barriers, and i personally don t have a problem with those things. i don t think the speaker has a problem with real border security, but it has to be focused on the actual threats, and while i support doing more wher
that is the thing that really struck me beyond noticing what it sounded like, that it sounded like hillary clinton. we have seen him talk about unity and we saw him recently talk about unity at the state of the union address. as i was writing about the state of the union address before and after it was over, i looked back over his speeches. he really only does that speech when he addresses congress. this is the third time he does that. he talks about unity in that, bipartisansh bipartisanship. every other day of the year you don t hear that very often. i wondered, is that on purpose, talk about unity. i don t know if they re trying to change their message. what you usually hear from president trump is more about, as you said, make america great again. more about patriotism, nationalism. we don t really hear this. it was a very different message for him. i don t know if that s what they re going to start this is it, he s starting the
job. so there are job opportunities in nashville. that s the reason i elected to go. that keeps recidivism down if you have a job and a goal everyday. matthew charles, thank you. thank you for having me. nice to meet you. appreciate it. great to hear from people whose lives have been changed by bipartisan sh bipartisanship. we are expecting to hear from senior democrat leadership very shortly. their reaction and what they intend to do going forward. stick around.
